Quote from the Bible

"And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like it, namely this, You shall love your neighbour as yourself. There is none other commandment greater than these." ~ Mark 12:30-31 The Holy Bible

What does this mean?
The first commandment is to love GOD with everything that we have been given (heart, soul, mind, strength).

The second is like it: to love our neighbor as ourselves.

So where is the commandment to love ourselves?

It is the first commandment. We are all that IS. We must first remember who we are as individuals. We must first find love, peace, joy, and gratitude within ourselves. We must first find the truth that resides within, and then love (surrender to) it with all we have been given (heart, soul, mind, strength).

Once we fully understand who we are, we must then begin to see others in the same way, as our mirror, as ourselves. We are ONE.
